Regular maintenance is important: periodically inspect the flue system for any signs of wear or damage, especially after the heating season.
• Sweep chimneys regularly for solid fuel applications
• Check all joints and seals in installations where they are required
• Cover any freshly cut edges or exposed steel with high-temperature paint to prevent rust
By following these simple maintenance steps, you ensure the longevity of your flue component and maintain optimum performance. A well-maintained flue system not only prevents potential hazards but also supports energy efficiency, leading to a more effective heating system overall.
